Volume of water in cylinder 21.6 mLMass of empty beaker 75.360 gMass of beaker with water 97.315 gMass of water in beaker ______ gDensity of water _______ g/mLCalculate the average density you determined for this unknown liquid and record below. [_________ g/mL +_________ g/mL] / 2 = _____________g/mL
The density of pure water is 1g/cm3 .so in order for the cylinder to float its density must be less than 1g/cm3.Is it ?
The density (d) of a substance is an intensive property that is defined as the ratio of its mass (m) to its volume (V). density = (mass)/(volume) d = (m)/(V)Considering that mass and volume are both extensive properties, explain why their ratio, density, is intensive.
